About This Event

This is a programme inspired by dance music from different eras and cultures, from the courts of 16th century France to folk inflected Scottish music; from Eastern European traditional music to nuevo tango.

The Mikeleiz-Zucchi Duo bring their compelling combination of instruments – saxophone and accordion – to the concert hall, exploring the symbolic relationship between these two instruments and dance music. The two commissions from Aileen Sweeney and Alex Paxton have already received the support of the Marchus Trust, the Vaughan Williams Foundation, and City Music Foundation.

Programme:

Thomas Adès – Overture from Powder her Face

Enrique Granados – Andaluza from 12 Spanish Dances

Maurice Ravel – Le Tombeau de Couperin (arr. MZ Duo)

Aileen Sweeney – Mirrie Dancers

Bela Bartok – Excerpts from Romanian Dances (arr. MZ Duo)

Alex Paxton – New Work Astor Piazzolla – Escualo

 

Tickets include a glass of wine at the end of the concert.
